  Amazon salary cap is 160k.

      I think they recently increased salary cap to $180k specifically for Bay Area. It varies by location.

        The link I posted shows Amazon salaries above $400k.

  Sure, but I'm assuming the worst case for six figures. If your household income is $200k then even in NY you can easily afford a nice house or high-end condo/apt in a good part of town, while living in comfort with no financial worry.
